many to count. That's one that sticks out. Okay,
2:47
I can say she did
2:50
so good story.
2:51
She loves horror movies, so she
2:53
has framed me to love them as well. One night

she came home and just turned off all the lights
2:58
and just said, candy man.
3:00

3:27
guys want to shine a light on eight hundred two, nine fifty
3:29
fifty. What's that's, Samantha? Who you want to shine a light on?
3:32
My son, Elijah. He's eleven
3:34
years old and he has a heart of gold. He's
3:36
always wanting to feed the homeless.
3:37
And now he is going through some medical
3:40
stuff and for Eastern all
3:42
he wanted to do was give
3:44
to everybody else.
3:45
Oh Elijah, that is so sweet. So
3:48
he's being really giving even though
3:50
he's having some medical problems.
3:53
Yeah, they just found a fist on his brain
3:56
and he's going to have some neurosurgery
3:59
testing this week, and he just puts
4:01
it.
4:02
For Easter.
4:02
All he wanted to do was go out.
4:04
And feed the homeless.
4:05
And I said to him, Aliza, you have to think about yourself,
4:07
and he was like, no, Mom, He's like we're fine.
4:09
He's like, you always make sure we're okay. He's like, we
4:11
have to make sure everybody else is fine.
4:13
Oh my gosh. That is so what a sweetheart.
4:16
And they feel like he'll be okay though.
4:18
Right we're hoping it was found
4:20
by mistake. Keep passed down at a water
4:22
park and started shaking and we rushed
4:24
him to the hospital and they found it on
4:26
his brain by doing his skin because he was
4:28
unresponsive.
4:29
All right, well, you know what, Thank god they found
4:31
out and he's in good spirits. And
4:34
I'm praying for Elijah right now. But
4:36
thank you so much for calling. It feels like he
4:38
learned that from you.
4:40
I couldn't have raised the better kids.
4:41
All right, well, thank you so much for colling. Shout
4:44
out to you, Elijah.
4:45
Thank you.
4:46
All right, Well that was shine a light. And when
4:48
we come back, we have your yee
4:50
tea, and let's talk about everything that's
4:52
been happening with Diddy. I know every single
4:54
day Misa Hilton, the mother to
4:57
Justin, his oldest son, is speaking out and
4:59
so is the V will tell you what both of them
5:01
had to say.
5:02
It's way up, they say in
5:04
the rooms from industry shade.
5:06
To all the gossip out angelus
5:09
spilling that et.
5:11
It's way up. And Mano's here with you. Yeah
5:14
yeah, let's get into some yet. Let's
5:16
talk about Ditty as we've been doing every
5:18
single day. So Misa Hilton,
5:21
who is Justin's mother, and Justin
5:23
is thirty years old right now, that's Ditty's son. Justin's
5:25
restaurant was named after him. She went on
5:27
social media and this is her first time speaking
5:30
on what's been happening with the house raids,
5:32
with all the allegations against Diddy,
5:34
But she's more coming for their
5:37
children, all right, And she said the over
5:39
zealous and overly militarized force
5:41
use against my sons, Justin and Christian is
5:43
deplorable. If these were the sons of a
5:45
non black celebrity, they would not have been handled
5:48
with the same aggression. The attempt to humiliate
5:51
and terrorize these innocent young black men is
5:53
despicable. Enough is enough?
5:55
Did Justin need several laser beams from firearms
5:58
pointed at his chest? Did christ Send need
6:00
a gun pointed at the back of his head while he was handcuffed?
6:03
How many times have we seen young, unarmed
6:05
black men not make it out of these types
6:07
of situations alive. So she did
6:09
say that she has retained an attorney as
6:12
they are investigating this. Now,
6:15
one thing I have said all along is I feel
6:17
really bad for the kids, right, you know,
6:20
because they did have to deal with all of this. Well, now
6:22
there is a lawsuit against Christian
6:25
Holmes that is happening
6:27
that he's being accused of sexually assaulting
6:30
and drugging a woman. You know. He
6:32
did write on social media that it was cap.
6:34
He did say, you know cap, but we don't know exactly
6:37
what he was referencing. But he
6:39
has not addressed these directly. So
6:42
there is a lawsuit in the
6:44
works. We don't have all of the details. The alleged
6:46
victim has yet to be revealed, and right
6:48
now everything is kind of sparse. But these
6:51
claims have been made, so we
6:54
shall see what happens with
6:56
that man. This is like so much
6:58
fallout now. In the meantime, there are people who
7:00
are coming to his defense. Stevie
7:03
J, who's obviously one of
7:05
the producers who works very closely with
7:07
Diddy, who also was at his house working on his
7:09
album, had this to say on TMZ.
7:12
Whatever someone does in their bedroom, that's what they
7:14
do. I don't got nothing to do with that. I'm just here to say
7:17
that I've never seen my men doing
7:19
anything final like they talk about. I'm
7:21
known him for twenty nine years and then
7:23
it's like with guys like like fifty
7:26
Uncle Tom cast like that. You
7:28
know, he wants to bring the black community
7:30
down worse than anyone
7:33
else.
7:34
Now, MANO you also spoke
7:37
on this on the Bailer Alert podcast,
7:39
and the headlines with things
7:43
like Mano suggest diddy sexual assault
7:45
lawsuits are propaganda and clowns
7:47
accuse it, little ride. But let's hear exactly
7:50
what happened.
7:51
Do you think it's like agenda
7:54
to destroy pop?
7:55
This is one of saying, you know anything about
7:57
the sixties and what they did with black leadership
7:59
and all that they divide and conquered
8:01
cointell.
8:02
Pro what they would do us.
8:03
They will put out misinformation,
8:06
have us looking at each other, and
8:08
also propaganda which is
8:10
fed through the media. It's a tool
8:13
that's always been used. So I'm not quick
8:15
to jump at what everybody
8:17
else is running towards Billy.
8:21
Okay, so that was the headline there.
8:23
Let's not Meek defending Diddy. I ain't in a position
8:25
to defend Ditty.
8:26
I'm just saying in general, I'm not quick
8:28
to just run left when everybody else is running left.
8:31
Let's wait and see what's happening. If
8:33
somebody done something wrong, then I mean, they're gonna
8:35
be accountable. But
8:38
at the same time, do I feel like sometimes there's an
8:40
agenda? Yeah, I mean, and let's not act like
8:42
because they're like, oh, man, he's you're comparing him to
8:44
a to a to a leader in the sixties.
8:46
No, I'm just.
8:47
Saying he's a powerful black man, right,
8:49
and you know, we know he was having issues
8:51
or whatever. And then a lot of these things are coming
8:54
out. I don't know if all of these things
8:56
are true, but generally we've
8:58
seen this before period.
9:00
Yeah, okay, all right, well that is your yut.
9:02
And when we come back, Oh, we have about
9:04
last night. That's where we discussed what he did
9:07
last night. I was out last night and I
9:09
never do this until like one thirty in the morning, but
9:11
we'll talk about it.
9:12
It's well, so about
9:14
last night, Yes, he
9:17
went down.
9:19
Okay, you like that song it's
9:22
way up. It's about last night. Ma, No, it's
9:24
bad. Yeah,
9:27
So tell me what you did last night, and then I'll tell you what
9:29
I did.
9:29
Oh. Well, I flew back in town.
9:31
I got back about about one o'clock in the You
9:33
exhausted, Yeah, a little
9:36
bit, okay, because I knew I wanted to come here in the
9:38
morning. Yes, I stayed in Atlanta
9:40
extra two days. I wanted to pull up at the court at
9:42
the courthouse to see young Thug. I didn't feel
9:44
it was right that I was, you know, out promoting
9:46
the song, and then I was I got to Atlanta and then
9:49
gotta go see him. Yeah, you know, I just don't feel
9:51
like, you know, that was cool. So I
9:53
got to see him. You know, I walked in the court room. He
9:55
looked up, he smiled. You see me,
9:57
you know, throw a thumbs up, you know, hearing good
10:00
spirits.
10:00
You know.
10:01
I stayed for a while. They put in the motion to try to
10:03
have those lyrics suppressed. The
10:05
George denied it, but I thought it was important
10:07
for me to show up. This is sort of that support
10:10
for him, and you know I did
10:12
that.
10:12
Okay, I love it.
10:14
Well.
10:15
Last night I was out late, and you know I do not
10:17
stay out late, but I did Godfrey's and Godfrey
10:19
Retrust podcasts with him and Dante Narrow. Supposedly
10:23
it starts at ten instead a little after ten, and
10:25
then I was there till like one am
10:28
doing the podcast. But it was good. It was fun.
10:30
It was a great conversation. I know both of them,
10:33
and so we talked about a
10:36
variety of different things.
10:37
You know.
10:38
They asked me questions about my own
10:41
coming into this radio business, what I
10:43
did before that, and
10:45
then we had some great conversations
10:48
about current events and entertainment
10:50
and all of that. So you could check that out on Godfrey's
10:52
page. You know, he has a go fund me because he's trying
10:55
to get funding to do his own comedy special because
10:57
he was talking about how certain coming
11:00
like they haven't been getting those offers
11:02
from these networks.
11:04
It.
11:04
Yeah, so you kind of got to do it just out exactly,
11:07
and so he's trying to get that done. So we were talking
11:09
about the stigma of GoFundMe because sometimes
11:11
people feel like when you start that, you
11:13
know it just people
11:16
sometimes can be embarrassed to do it. But Dante
11:18
talked him into it, so I'm glad he did. So
11:20
make sure you donate to his GoFundMe. And
11:22
then I was also meeting with have
11:25
you ever done virtual golf?
11:28
I've done top golf?
11:30
Okay, So there's a golf Zone Social
11:32
that's going to be coming to Brooklyn and it's opening
11:35
in a in maybe like a month, and
11:37
so I was meeting with Sean
11:39
from golf Zone Social and
11:41
so I'm excited about that. I just did virtual
11:44
golf for the first time when I was in Detroit, at the
11:46
MGM, I did top golf and it was really
11:48
fun. But they're gonna have people that can actually train you,
11:51
you know, to be able to like real PGA
11:53
golfers that can train you professionals.
11:56
So I'm excited about that. And so that's
11:58
going to be opening since so I know, oh, whenever
12:01
you decide to come to Brooklyn, we'll go.
12:02
No, you gotta stop, like
12:04
you just have to stop. I'll
12:07
be there.
12:08
Okay. So I'm excited about that. But yeah, that was
12:10
fun because I've decided I used
12:12
to play field hockey. A lot of people don't know that, but
12:14
I did play field hockey when I was in high school.
12:16
That's the one in the grass. Yeah, but it's not real
12:19
hockey.
12:19
Yeah, field hockey.
12:20
Yeah, but it's not like you got to be on the ice, baby, phil
12:23
Is.
12:23
I mean, it's it's a different sport. It's just
12:26
like you know what, and that ball moves a lot slower
12:28
on the grass and heavy.
12:29
Yeah, it's like, yeah, not like real.
12:32
Don't do that. Don't do that to yourself because
12:34
I have them feel hockey women waiting downstairs
12:36
for you with their sticks and their
12:39
mouthguards and their shan guards. What did
12:41
it attack all right, well anyway, eight
12:43

12:47

13:19
I'm reading from Alana right when we got Damn.
13:21
I moved to Ohio. Now, been dealing with this
13:24

13:26
he got a whole nother man. But
13:29
the man that he's dealing with, I.
13:31
Don't know about what he knows about me. But
13:33
he really don't know about me.
13:35
But right now he's five months pregnant. That's
13:37
my baby, but he still think it is.
13:39
How do you know it's yours?
13:40
Though, I know how
13:43
like that.
13:44
Ain't here people up from the area.
13:46

Oh, he gonna take here the baby.
13:51
You're gonna get a test?
13:52

13:54
So you want to act like it's not yours even though you
13:57
know it is.
13:58
If he's happy, I'm happy. I'm
14:00
good with being a side dude.
14:02
You laugh, You laughing like you just came off with
14:04

14:10
Oh no, the baby come out looking just like me.
14:12
I'm not gonna.
14:15
Trying to avoid this. It's a dangerous
14:18
thing. And I think everybody could say
14:20
that. But when that baby is born and you see
14:22
that baby become a billionaire later
14:24
in life, you're gonna be like, man, I should have stepped up. All

14:35
from Brownsville gangster. You're all about to
14:37
put y'all on to what's going on?
14:39
Though, Man, Okay, let's hear it.
14:41
So I had a childhood friend. Me
14:43
and him got into an altercation. So
14:45
instead of me like being him up,
14:48
I just just on found I'm not gonna lie,
14:50
I'm cousin up and then
14:52
sent.
14:53
Them the video.
14:54
Oh my god, man, that ain't that foul?
14:56
Like if you had if you had knocked off his wife
14:58
or his girl, would have been really foul. Cousin
15:00
is like, get it, that ain't really
15:02
that Ain't that ain't really on the foul.
15:04
Sending him the video in foul.
15:06
I mean, that's light, But.
15:07
That's really more hurt the cousin than anybody
15:10
else.
15:10
I'm saying, hurt the cousin. You should have did his wife
15:12
or his girl or you know, maybe his mom's
15:15
and something. You really want to be foul, Like, you know what I'm.
15:17
Saying, get close to them if I kind of guy like.
15:19
The moment, you should call back when you foul.
15:21
Bro, No no, no, But you don't know.
15:24
But what didn't the cousin do to deserve this?
15:26
He took is too, so that's why afterwards
15:29
he was like trying to you know what I'm saying, instigate
15:31
the situation. So I'm in the video.
15:33
You gotta go deeper, bro, like Pauls say,
15:36
you gotta you gotta do you know what I'm saying, Like, if
15:38
you're gonna do it, do it now.
15:40
You gotta understand.
15:41
I know this god, this guy he go hard for his
15:43
family, Like.
15:43
But if you would have knocked off his wife or his
15:46
girl somebody he was sleeping with.
15:47
But he ain't got one though, A
15:49
wait for him to get one day and.
15:51
Then call back all made
15:53
him feel bad about his secret, like it wasn't.
15:55
It wasn't really, it wasn't like
15:57
fol okay, the file wasn't filing
16:00
all right.
16:01
Well that was tell us a secret. It was supposed
16:03
to be no judgment, but you made that guy feel like my
16:05
secret wasn't nothing.
16:06
They gotta start really calling up
16:09
there, really, you know.
16:09
We need some foulness.
16:10
Yeah, like if you're going to go here, go there.
16:13
And he gave his name and everything he wasn't secret
16:15
in, but that is tell us
16:17
a secret. And when we come back we have your
16:19
yee te. Well, let's talk about Lizzo. You know, she
16:21
says she quit, but what does she mean when
16:23
she said she quit? We'll talk about it. It's way up
16:26
the shore.
16:26
She's about to blow the lead ab off this, but let's get
16:28
it. Angelus building that yet,
16:31
come and get the tea.
16:32
All right, it's way up with Angela. Yeah, I'm here,
16:34
Mano's here. No, we need
16:37
a behind the scenes show. But
16:39
since we just played Nicki Minaj, let's talk about
16:41
this letter that was written more than two
16:43
hundred artists that include Billie Eilish, Nicki Minas,
16:46
the Jonas Brothers. They wont tech companies
16:48
and artificial intelligence developers and digital
16:50
music services to cease the use
16:53
of AI over concerns of the impact that it
16:55
will have on artists and songwriters. That open
16:57
letter was actually published yesterday and
17:00
talking about the unregulated use of AI in the music
17:02
industry that could sabotage creativity,
17:05
undermined artists, songwriters, musicians and
17:07
the rights holders.
17:08
Be playing with that AI. This is the rise of the machines.
17:11
Yeah, so you know, be careful with that,
17:13
everybody, because and artists do need
17:15
to start thinking about this now before it's
17:17
too late.
17:18
Not just all it's just every aspect of life,
17:20
all right.
17:21
Now.
17:21
Beyonce has been sending a lot of bouquets
17:24
out to people, and one person who's got a
17:26
bouquet of flowers no, I'm not an artist that
17:28
she was inspired by. But Jack
17:31
White shared photographs of a bouquet
17:33
and a thank you note, and it said, I hope you are well. I just
17:35
wanted you to know how much you inspired me on this record.
17:38
So he expressed his admiration. He said,
17:40
what a sweet gesture to receive here in Nashville this morning
17:42
from the talented and gracious Beyonce celebrating
17:45
her new Cowboy Carter album. And so
17:47
people have been getting these these flowers
17:49
from her as she is now the
17:52
first black woman to reach number one on Billboards
17:54
Hot Country Songs chart with her Texas Hold'em.
17:57
And her other single, sixteen Carriages, debuted at
17:59
number nine on that same chart. So shout out
18:01
to Beyonce. Now, the first
18:03
week predictions they are saying
18:05
is going to be four hundred and five thousand
18:08
units. Can you believe that? I
18:11
mean, that is crazy.
18:13
This is nineties numbers.
18:15
They said. The pure sales that she has from
18:17
that that's one hundred and seventy one thousand
18:20
units is going to outseill the entire Billboard
18:22
two hundred combined. Okay,
18:24
Beyonce, Cowboy Carter and Michelle
18:26
Obama has also congratulated her. She posted
18:29
a message to her, you have changed the game
18:31
once again by helping redefine a music genre
18:33
and transform our culture. I'm so proud
18:36
of you. And then she also of course
18:38
encourage people to vote. All right, we
18:40
need to keep the faith and vote, and you can register
18:42
at when we all vote.
18:44
All right.
18:45
Now, Lizzo has added some clarity
18:48
around her recent declaration that she is quitting
18:51
music. People thought she was quitting music, but
18:54
here's what she had to say. She said she's not leaving music
18:56
per se. She clarified when she said
18:58
I quit what she meant.
19:00
When I say I quit, I mean I
19:03
quit giving any negative
19:06
energy attention.
19:08
What I'm not gonna quit is the joy
19:10
of my life, which is making music, which is
19:12
connecting the people, because.
19:14
I know I'm not alone, all
19:16
right. So that's just for clarity. She's still
19:18
gonna be joyous in her music
19:21
and do what she loves, but she is
19:23
not going to, you
19:25
know, I guess share certain things with people.
19:27
She's gonna quit responding and giving energy. That's
19:30
a hard thing to do sometimes as an artist, but
19:32
I think that makes the most sense. I had a conversation
19:35
on Godfrey's podcast about that just last
19:37
night, all right, and now let's
19:39
talk about Fallin from Real Housewives
19:42
of Atlanta formerly from Real Housewives of Atlanta,
19:44
And she has said publicly before that that show
19:46
kind of ruined a lot of what she had going
19:48
on and definitely ruined her marriage and
19:51
Portia, as we all know, married her
19:53
ex husband Simon Quick But
19:55
now after fifteen months, they have decided
19:58
to end their marriage, and Fallin is speaking
20:00
out for the first time about the tea
20:02
that she has. I've got
20:04
tea coming for y'all. Okay, I know y'all been
20:06
waiting for me to say something.
20:08
I'm coming.
20:10
Well, we're not gonna do.
20:11
They'll be coming on here be a messy y'all. All
20:14
right, So I guess at some point she's
20:17
gonna have something to say, and I know people want to
20:19
hear that because this was such a crazy
20:21
situation from the beginning. All right,
20:23
Well that is your yet and when we come
20:25
back, we have under the radar. These are the stories that are
20:28
not necessarily in the headlines.
20:30
They are flying under the radar. Have you ever
20:32
may or seen somebody on the plane that was dressed
20:34
inappropriately or is this such a thing? What
20:37
you mean like someone getting on the plane as a passenger
20:40
and you're like you.
20:41
Were another girl like like, oh she
20:43
got on that, I enjoyed
20:45
it. Okay.
20:46
Anyway, this passenger is saying
20:48
that she was told to she
20:50
got escorted off a flight, and will tell you
20:52
what she had on or didn't have on that
20:55
caused that to happen. And under the radar, it's way up.
20:57
These stories are flying under the radar,
21:00
all right.
21:00
This way up with Angela. Ye, I'm Angela. Yee manos
21:02
in the building?
21:03
No man, now you.
21:04
Ready to go under the radar. Let's do it all right,
21:06
Well, let's talk about home purchases. More
21:09
than one third of homes in February
21:11
were purchased with cash. You know
21:13
why that is mortgage rates are still ridiculously
21:17
high. Yeah, so the rate of all cash purchases
21:20
is within striking distance of the record
21:23
high. The record high was thirty eight percent and twenty
21:25
thirteen. This is a time when cash rules.
21:27
You know.
21:28
I was actually when I was
21:30
seeing this story this morning, I was looking
21:32
at what I paid for my house and the mortgage
21:34
I took out, and I got a three point twenty five
21:36
percent rate because I got it at a time when the rates were
21:39
really low, and I was comparing it to
21:41
what the rate what it would be now. And
21:43
you know what the difference is in price per
21:45
month on my mortgage. If I would have had to get like
21:48
a six point eight percent, it
21:50
would be an additional four thousand dollars
21:52
a month. And that is why, And
21:54
that's you know, it was an expensive house. But you
21:57
know, even if you look at something that's it's
21:59
probably about like thirty forty more
22:01
than what she would be paying. So that's crazy,
22:04
all right. Now a Delta passenger is calling
22:06
on them to change their policy. She was escorted
22:08
off a flight because she didn't have on a bra Lisa
22:11
Archbold. She said the gate agent told her
22:13
it was offensive and revealing. Now she
22:15
has an attorney. This is a story
22:17
that we heard previously in January. It
22:20
got some attention, but now she's lawyered up. She
22:22
has Gloria already as her attorney.
22:25
That was wrong, what to escort
22:27
her?
22:27
Yeah, like she didn't have a bra on.
22:30
Yeah, she said that she was told her
22:32
outfit was offensive, it was revealing.
22:35
She was allowed to get back on the plane after
22:37
putting on a button up shirt that she tied around her
22:40
that she had tied around her.
22:40
This is America.
22:42
She said she was targeted and humiliated.
22:45
She said, I wore the same clothing any man
22:47
might wear. I also have a chest smaller than many
22:49
men on that flight. Where does delta draw
22:51
the line?
22:52
Throw the line Delta, this is America. She
22:54
should be able to wear no bra.
22:56
Yeah.
22:56
I do find that to be a weird It is so
22:59
wrong. I don't
23:01
know the picture of what that was like. But
23:03
I also feel like you shouldn't be forced to do
23:07
Yeah. I mean maybe it was, but we
23:09
see guys nipples when they wear shirts if
23:11
it's cold, right, I don't know about that
23:14
for real. All right, well that is you're
23:16
under the radar, now, you know. We got the Way Up Mix at the top
23:18
of the hour plus it is a Wealth Wednesday,
23:20
and Cassandra Cummings is going to be joining
23:23
us. She is the founder of Stocks

23:43
and she's a financial advisor, and she says, and I'm all
23:46
around amazing person. I was at her event in Vegas
23:48
and when I tell you, I met so many great people. But
23:51
we'll talk about it on a Wealth Wednesday.
23:53
It's way up.
23:54
She's like the chout like they a Jeal Jean
23:57
like they and Jeli Jean Man.
23:58
She's spilling it all. This is yet
24:01
way off.
24:04
It's way Epamandela yee Mano is
24:06
here, no Starvin.
24:08
All right, let's get into some yet. Angel
24:11
Reesa announced today that she's headed to the WNBA.
24:14
She did this via a profile in Vogue. She
24:16
said, I've done everything I wanted to in college. I've won
24:18
a national championship. I've gotten Southeastern Conference
24:20
Player of the Year. I've been at All American.
24:22
My ultimate goal is to be a pro and to be one of
24:24
the greatest basketball players to play.
24:27
Ever. I feel like I'm ready. She
24:29
had until tonight to announce her future plans.
24:32
She had the option to remain at LSU for one more
24:34
season under the COVID waiver, but now she is going
24:36
to go to the WNBA. That draft
24:38
will be held on April fifteenth. All
24:41
right, that's gonna be huge. Donathan
24:43
Majors, he wanted a judge to toss his
24:45
criminal charges, but the court denied
24:48
that request. So that means that if the conviction
24:50
stands, that means the conviction
24:52
stands and he will be sentenced. So
24:56
you know, we're gonna find out pretty
24:58
soon. As a matter of fact, he'll be sent on April
25:00
eighth. He's facing up to one year behind
25:02
bars. That's the worst case scenario or
25:05
probation, depending on what the judge decides.
25:08
What about his Coretta, she's.
25:10
By his side, still okay? And
25:13
the Feds, according to prosecutors,
25:17
they're saying that a former
25:20
federal prosecutor, Niyama Ramani,
25:23
is also the president of West Coast
25:25
Trial Lawyers, says that the FED
25:27
raided Ditties homes over concerns of
25:30
video evidence of sex crimes
25:32
that could have been destroyed. So they did
25:34
get the search warrants to raid
25:37
the house, and they wanted to make sure they got all video
25:39
footage that was on phones, computers, drives
25:41
on the CCTVs before any of it could
25:43
be destroyed. That's why
25:46
there were so many people there. And they said the level
25:48
of force is likely because the FEDS
25:50
likely already had the case and corroborating
25:52
witnesses. This is an extra search for
25:55
evidence and is done with the element of surprise
25:57
and force so that evidence, particularly
25:59
video evidence, cannot be destroyed.
26:02
You said this.
26:03
This is the former federal prosecutor and
26:05
the president of West Coast Trial Lawyers giving
26:08
more information the significant
26:10
law enforcement presence related to the size
26:12
of his properties, and the last thing you want
26:14
when conducting a raid is to have too few
26:16
agents and to put them at a risk of violence.
26:19
There's also the possibility that individuals
26:21
flee or that they destroy evidence.
26:23
I feel like this is in response to me, says saying,
26:25
why would you have so many agents
26:28
and why would you arrest have the kids
26:30
in handcuffs and things like that. All right,
26:32
now, here's some other news that just broke chance.
26:35
The rapper and his wife, Kirsten have announced
26:37
that they are getting a divorce. They
26:39
have been separated from months, and she posted
26:41
on social media after a period
26:43
of separation, the two of us have arrived at the decision
26:46
to part ways. We came to this decision
26:48
amicably and with gratitude for the time we spent together.
26:51
God has blessed us with two beautiful daughters
26:53
who we will continue to raise together. We
26:55
kindly ask for privacy and respect as
26:58
we navigate this transition. Man,
27:01
they've been together for quite some time, and at
27:03
such a young age. Two five
27:05
years they were married, but I think they were together before
27:07
that, you know, for a while too so and
27:10
he always tells the story about how much he really wanted he
27:12
did a whole album for his wife. All right, and
27:14
Rob Wade was arrested in Florida for possession
27:16
of a firearm by a convicted felon.
27:19
This actually happened today. That's the arrest
27:22
of April third, twenty twenty four, and
27:24
so we will have more information for you as
27:26
that breaks and Made in America is not
27:28
going to take place in twenty twenty four. And they just
27:31

28:16
I'm trying to figure out what I should do about
28:19
my girl. Man, my birthday was yesterday,
28:22
so I posted on Instagram and a
28:24
whole bunch of people was telling me have the birthday
28:27
particular. My ins fiancee commented
28:29
on it, and we haven't been in contact. Man,
28:32
God lord, how long? She basically
28:34
told me half the birthday I love you, and
28:36
I just you know, responded fans and
28:38
was like, thank you, I love you, I love
28:41
you.
28:43
No that old thing back,
28:45
no, but I don't know.
28:47
Yeah, I was responding to everybody.
28:49
Well, first of all, happy birthday, Sarah. You ruined
28:51
your day right and
28:54
that's your ex fiance, not your ex girlfriend,
28:57
not somebody you're messed with. Does she know you're
28:59
in a relation and ship? Yeah, that's
29:01
disrespectful already. And then you wrote
29:03
that back to her. You know how that made your woman feels.
29:06
That's what I'm saying.
29:07
I don't have with
29:09
no woman there. You my girl understand
29:12
that, So it ain't like like we're grown.
29:14
Well, then why is she mad?
29:16
If she understands that, why is she mad?
29:17
Because he said, I love you.
29:19
Listen, immature.
29:21
Even when you're talking to me, you're acting like
29:24
it's no big deal. It is a big deal
29:26
to her, So you cannot say
29:29
it's nothing. She knows this. She knows that
29:31
it may have looked silly publicly. You know
29:33
how many people probably looked at your birthday post,
29:36
friends, family members, her friends, your friends,
29:38
and was like, WHOA.
29:39
So I ain't trying to jumping by you though, and I'm
29:42
not thinking away from her feels. I
29:44
didn't say none of that to her. Immediately
29:47
apologized. I'm gonna tell you exactly what I
29:49
said. Immediate dude, I said,
29:51
I'm sorry for being inconsiderate, rude, and
29:53
stupid. I take it down immediately and
29:55
then I say no, excuse me. And then
29:58
I said I'm sorry, please forgive me.
30:00
Okay, And what does she say?
30:02
She said, no, you're will or I don't care. I
30:04
say no excuse to say, leave me alone?
30:07
And then I'm sorry, please forgive me. She say,
30:09
I'm good.
30:10
You know I would say, man, Okay.
30:12
No you wouldn't. You know she's upset, and
30:14
so you just have to respect that.
30:19
Do they know each other? Do your
30:21
ex and your new brother? They don't know each other.
30:23
Nah, they don't know each other. They're from two different
30:26
points of earth.
30:27
What happened when she came home?
30:29
Just walking past each other?
30:32
Okay, well, now you got to say let's talk, and
30:34
you got to set that up. And when she gets
30:36
when she gets home today, maybe have some food
30:39
ready if you have to order it, whatever you have to
30:41
do. Sit down with some wine. Let's
30:43
have a conversation. Let's discuss this. I
30:45
ruined my birthday yesterday. I did not mean
30:47
to do that to you. It's all about you. I
30:50
made a mistake. I'll never do it again. All
30:52
the things you have to say and mina and also
30:54
know how to move forward and ask her what does
30:56
she need you to do now you want me to block
30:58
her blocked because
31:01
that was disrespectful of her to do that. You know she
31:03
knew what she was doing.
31:04
It had to be Melissa, like she just
31:06
started following me on my birthday,
31:09
like we've been broke up for like ten years,
31:11
we just started following me up today.
31:13
Ten years. Because then that makes it feel
31:15
like you miss her, Like why did you even respond
31:18
to her? Y'all? Ain't y been together? You're still thinking
31:20
about her? You just need to You
31:22
need to like.
31:23
Other girls on that too, who said I love
31:25
you and I said I love you back too.
31:29
Yes, I'll say right,
31:33
And just how you're talking to us and arguing with us
31:35
about it, don't do that with her. Just listen
31:37
to what she's saying. You understand
31:39
your messed up period, not well
31:41
but this, but that, but this hapened.
31:43
No, well, I'm just doing that with.
31:45
Y'all to pick y'all brain. I ain't gonna do that
31:47
with her because that'll sound like justifying or
31:50
excuse me.
31:50
All right, well, thank you, I appreciate you for calling
31:53
you seem like a good guy, said thank
31:55
y'all. Way up with you, all right,
31:57
happy birthday? And that
31:59
was ask ye eight hundred two nine two
32:01
fifty one fifty in case you couldn't get through. And
32:04
when we come back, it's a Wealth Wednesday and
32:06
we have the founder of Stocks and Stilettos, Cassandra
32:09
Commings, joining us as we kick
32:11
off Financial Literacy Month. It's way up.
32:14
I had a dream of wealthy and I
32:16
don't mind sharing my wealth dog.
32:18
Getting you straight financially, mentally and
32:20
physically. This is Wealth Wednesday on
32:22
Way Up with Angela Yee.
32:23
What's it's way up with Angela Yee. I'm Angela
32:26
Yee and my Wealth Wednesday partner, Stacy Tisdale
32:28
is here today.
32:29
Happy National Financial Literacy
32:31
Month, and we are going to make
32:34
you all very literate in the stock market,
32:36
so we don't miss this next bull market
32:39
with the one and only Cassandra Cummings,
32:42
who is the founder of the Stocks and Stiletto
32:44
Society, which is a group of over one hundred
32:46
thousand black female investors,
32:49
and she's also the author of Fearless
32:52
Finance, a timeless guide to building wealth.
32:55
Always a pleasure to have you, by the way, such
32:57
an amazing community. When I went to her event in
32:59
Vague, I met so many people that I keep in touch
33:02
with to this day really, you know, and I think
33:04
things like that are so valuable because you want
33:06
to be around people who are interested
33:08
in the things that you're interested in. In the conversations
33:10
that we were able to have, I mean I met angel investors,
33:13
hotel owners, all black women
33:16
you know at this event. So yeah, its
33:18
credible.
33:19
First of all, tell everybody about Stocks and Stiletto Society.
33:21
It's over one hundred thousand.
33:23
The fastest going online community for women investors.
33:26
Yes, it is.
33:27
So.
33:27
I started the community about eight years
33:29
ago, and I really
33:32
just wanted to teach women how to buy
33:34
stock, how to buy and sale stock in the stock
33:36
market, because when I was with the firm,
33:39
a lot of my clients didn't look like me. And I'm
33:42
like, you know, we have to be at this table.
33:44
And the community has grown. We actually reach
33:47
about a quarter of a million people.
33:48
Right now, I'm talking to Cassandra Cummings, she's
33:51
the founder of Stocks and Stilettos. Stay,
33:53
sy, what's your question?
33:54
How did you get that many black women
33:57
to invest in stocks when you consider sixty
33:59
percent of black women in this country
34:01
and not invested at all.
34:02
I know, I was so shocked to see that statistic
34:05
sixty percent of black women are not investing
34:07
in the stock market, and I think it has
34:09
to do with creating a sort
34:12
of sorority around money.
34:14
And then I also feel like sometimes we feel
34:17
that we don't have the extra money to
34:19
be able to invest.
34:20
You don't need to be rich to invest as
34:23
the first stuff.
34:24
Yeah, you don't have to be rich to invest.
34:26
And I think inside of the community, what
34:28
happens is that you get that proximity
34:31
to success. So you see other
34:33
women making strides. They're
34:35
starting with two hundred dollars and growing their accounts
34:37
to twenty thousand dollars, and that's inspiring
34:40
other women to also know that they
34:42
can do.
34:43
It as well.
34:43
And so I think the community itself, we
34:46
just sort of feed off each other because success
34:48
leaves clues and success is
34:50
contagious. We're hitting all time highs
34:52
with the s and P five hundred, all time housed
34:55
highs with the Doal Jones. You definitely
34:57
have to take some risk because our money is just not
34:59
going to work for us if we put in a CD
35:02
or put in a savings account.
35:03
A lot of people don't realize when they think about the stock
35:05
market, they think of risk the US stock market.
35:08
Over time, averaging out the ups and downs
35:10
has averaged about a nine percent return
35:14
every year, and you just can't beat
35:16
that anywhere else. But where can
35:18
people begin?
35:19
I mean, you can begin with the mag seven. They're
35:22
magnificent seven, right, that's your Apples,
35:24
your amazons in video Netflix
35:28
Meta, you know, So start with the max
35:30
seven. The Max seven alone returns
35:33
seventy percent.
35:34
Last year, my son turned me on to
35:36
micro investing because he had a little
35:38
He asked me for my debit card for acorns, okay,
35:41
and I gave it to him. And then a couple
35:43
months later I looked and there's one thousand dollars in this account,
35:45
and I'm like, what are you doing? Yeah, and he
35:48
asked me on top of that instead of allowances,
35:51
well, in addition to allowances, I should say, he
35:53
adds like forty dollars a month to it.
35:55
Nice.
35:55
Can you believe that account? I wanted to tell you that is
35:57
twenty eight thousand. It's
36:00
an investing spare change, so
36:02
getting an app rounding up. There's
36:04
so many ways to participate in this market
36:07
now.
36:07
And he's just in college now, so that's
36:10
great. It's a wealth Wednesday. It's Financial
36:12
Literacy Month and Cassandra Cummings, the founder
36:14
of Stocks and Stilettos, is here. So
36:17
is my Wealth Wednesday partner, Stacy Tisdale. And
36:19
when we come back, we'll have information on how
36:21
you can also join Cassandra's free seminars
36:24
Spring into Stocks. It's a new initiative
36:26
to get more black people investing.
36:28
Had a dream of wealthy and I don't
36:30
mind sharing my wealth dog getting you
36:32
straight financially, mentally and physically.
36:35
This is Wealth Wednesday on Way Up with Angela
36:37
Yee.
36:38
What's up?
36:38
Its Way Up with Angela Yee. I'm Angela Yee. It's
36:40
a Wealth Wednesday. So Stacy Tisdale is here
36:42
and we have the founder of Stax and Stiletto
36:45
Society, Cassandra Cummings here.
36:47
Stacy, what's your question.
36:49
You have a free initiative for people
36:51
called Spring into Stocks.
36:53
Yes, about about it. I'm excited.
36:55
Spring into Stocks is our free
36:58
spring stock market even that
37:00
we're doing. And so we're basically taking
37:03
Spring and we're breaking it down. Each letter
37:05
stands for something, so S is going to
37:07
be for stock basics. We're going to show you how to
37:09
get into the market. P is
37:12
for passive income. We're gonna show you how the stock
37:14
market can help you make passive income.
37:17
R is for reads real estate investment
37:19
trusts, how you can basically have digital
37:21
real estate. And then I is for index
37:23
funds. We're gonna go over index funds, and
37:27
is for stocks you need to own now. And
37:29
then G is gonna be for graphs and charts.
37:31
How do you actually read charts? What are some of this you
37:34
know, mystical stuff that you see on
37:36
charts. We're gonna break that down for you. So spring into
37:39
stocks, no gate keeping here, and
37:41
it's free.
37:42
It's free.
37:42
It's free, and all you have to do to get it
37:44
is follow Cassandra. We'll follow stocks
37:46
and stilettos on Instagram.
37:48
But I really putting small amounts
37:51
to work and dollar something called dollar cost
37:53
averaging, which means, no matter what the market's doing,
37:55
you put the same amount in like once a month, I tay
37:57
have an extra forty dollars now
38:00
to my bank account and just put into one of these
38:02
investment apps. That's how you really build wealth.
38:04
And that's key to you know, putting
38:06
it on autopilot, because that way
38:09
you don't have to think about it. And
38:11
if you can do that or if you know you're in real
38:13
estate, you get commission check. Just no off the top,
38:15
I'm putting ten percent over here in
38:18
this account. Just really creating
38:20
those habits for yourself. You talk about
38:22
starting small, There are a lot of companies
38:25
that are going to be doing stock splitz.
38:27
We just had Walmart do a stock split. We
38:30
recently had Tesla Apples. So
38:33
basically what happens is that they give
38:35
you if you have a share and they say it's
38:37
going to be a two for one split, you'll
38:40
now have two shares, but it
38:42
will have the same value as that one
38:44
share had. So if you had a share that was
38:46
one hundred dollars and they're going to do a two for
38:48
one split, now you'll have two shares
38:51
that are worth fifty dollars.
38:53
And so we have Chipotle.
38:55
Believe it or not, Chipotle, it's a
38:57
three thousand dollars a share
39:00
stock and it's about to do a fifty
39:02
to one split. If you do the math,
39:04
it's going to be about sixty dollars. I think right
39:07
a fifty to one split.
39:08
Chipotle at sixty dollars is a buye.
39:11
It's a huge buy and so you have to
39:13
pay attention to these types of things. We talk about
39:15
these things in our community. Redd
39:17
it just went public, right, so we talk about
39:20
companies that go public. Should we get
39:22
in? What price should we get in? So all of these
39:24
conversations are taking place inside of the community.
39:27
Do I have to know how to invest to become
39:29
a member of the Stocks and Stilettos society?
39:31
You don't.
39:32
We start with where you are. So we have women
39:34
who have never bought stock to women who
39:37
have seven figure portfolios.
39:39
So we really sort of you know, it's like a
39:41
Montessori school.
39:42
Yeah, everybody.
39:45
On different levels.
39:46
Right.
39:46
How do people join?
39:48
So they can join the Facebook group by
39:50
going to bit dot lead Stocks and Stilettos.
39:53
And if you're not able to join inside
39:55
the group, you can follow us on Facebook. That's
39:57
open to everybody.
39:58
